Oxiplex/AP is a clear, single-use, flowable gel. It is intended to serve as a temporary, absorbable mechanical barrier separating surgically traumatized opposing tissue surfaces in the peritoneal cavity, where adhesions could potentially form.
Oxiplex/AP is a unique formulation of the company’s proprietary biomaterial. It is supplied ready-to-use in 2, 20 mL syringes with a sterile applicator.
Trauma to the peritoneum during abdominal surgery can result in fibrous bands connecting surfaces that are normally separate. The peritoneum is a membrane that lines the abdominal cavity and covers most of the abdominal organs. Adhesions occur despite the best surgical techniques, but there are strategies that can reduce adhesions. These include using mechanical barriers to separate traumatized tissues during the healing period.
Adhesions are the most frequent postoperative complication of open and laparoscopic surgery. Most women develop adhesions after major gynecological surgery and some will develop clinical consequences such as bowel obstruction, infertility, chronic pelvic pain, and intraoperative complications 6,7,8,9.
